Verify an Algolia index for every new playlist
Start each playlist project with a ready search index.
Trigger
New Playlist Created or Deleted
Triggers when a new playlist is created or deleted.
Action
Index Exists
Tool to check if an algolia index exists. use before performing index operations to prevent accidental index creation. example: indexexists(index name='products').
Why this helps
New playlists can launch before the supporting search index is available.
- Catches missing indexes early
- Reduces launch day surprises
- Creates a consistent readiness check
